Great experience with Yannick

Commenté le 04/10/2023

We requested a booking with FUNTRIP at short notice and received confirmation from Yannick within a very short time. The support from FUNTRIP was professional and we felt we were in good hands at all times. After arriving in Pont du Loup, we were equipped accordingly and our group was driven to the entry point for the canyoning tour. Then followed 2 unforgettable hours, which began with a briefing on safety and technique by Yannick. The difficulty level of the tour is highly recommended for beginners - challenging and exciting, but not overwhelming. We would like to thank the entire FUNTRIP team for the great experience and support!

Is canyoning or canyoneering safer for beginners?

Canyoning and canyoneering are equally safe when done with proper supervision. The most important factor is having certified instructors and using the right safety equipment, which greatly lowers risks for beginners. Beginner routes usually have optional obstacles and are set in controlled environments. In our activity, professional guides watch over the group, and the route is designed for beginners. You can also decide if you want to try a jump or not.

Do jumps and slides remain optional in the Gorges du Loup?

 In beginner-friendly canyons such as the Gorges du Loup, most obstacles are optional, with alternatives such as walking or rope assistance provided by a guide. Generally low in height, jumps are always supervised by professionals. On this route, both slides and jumps are optional. There is no obligation to do anything if you do not want to. This flexibility makes the activity an ideal choice for families and people discovering canyoning for the first time.

What is the difficulty level of canyoning in the Gorges du Loup?

The proposed route is a level 2 course, fairly easy, where the difficulties can be bypassed, and accessible from age 8.

What equipment is provided and what should you bring for canyoning in the Gorges du Loup?

A helmet, wetsuit and neoprene socks will be provided. Please bring a swimsuit to wear under the wetsuit — for the walk back up after the canyon descent, you will be warm! — and trainers/sneakers that can go in the water.

Are there any age restrictions or physical requirements for canyoning in the Gorges du Loup?

You must be at least 8 years old, know how to swim and be in good physical condition, without necessarily being sporty.

From what age is access to this canyon possible?

The canyoning experience is possible from age 8.

Can you bring water shoes for canyoning in the Alpes-Maritimes?

No, you must wear trainers/sneakers that can go in the water. Water shoes are slippery and therefore dangerous. If you don’t have any, the provider can rent some to you.

Is the Gorges du Loup canyon open all year round?

No. In general, the opening season runs from April to October. In winter, due to rainfall, the current is too strong to practice this activity.
